Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2003
The well-known Toth adsorption isotherm equation developed formerly for adsorption of vapors is converted into its solution analogue. It is shown that this equation can be successfully applied to the description of adsorption data of organics on activated carbons.

Analytical isotherm models such as Langmuir isotherm, Freundlich isotherm, and other linear isotherms are commonly used for modeling adsorption datasets for a wide range of adsorption studies. Most of these studies consider pH to be fixed. However, pH is an important parameter that varies widely. Hence, the model parameters developed for one set of experiments cannot be used in another scenario where the pH is different. Surface complexation models that can simulate pH changes are complex, multi-parameter models that are difficult to use. The modified Langmuir–Freundlich (MLF) isotherm developed earlier by us could simulate pH-dependent adsorption on goethite-coated sands. However, it has only been tested for arsenic adsorption on goethite-coated sands. Therefore, chromium adsorption datasets were considered to extend this MLF isotherm for other metal ions. Two different adsorbents, viz. coconut root activated carbon (CoAC) and palm male flower activated carbon (PaAC), were selected...
